Identify a plant
"Andrey Tarasevich" wrote in message ... Hello I have a plant I would like identified. I tried looking for a picture of this plant on a couple of Web sites, but I couldn't find one. The plant has very distinctive look so, I hope, it shouldn't be too difficult to identify it from a mere description. The plant has elongated roundish leaves. Top surfaces of the leaves are green, bottom surfaces are violet/purple. The leaves are visibly ruffled and the edges seem to wrap up a bit. Every now and again the stem splits into three stalks - the middle stalk continues to grow up, while the side ones hold the leaves. Looks like every split is rotated 90 deg relative to the previous one. Does anyone know what's the name of this plant? -- Best regards, Andrey Tarasevich Sounds like one of the Cryptocorynes, I have seen them do this and elongate the main stem. If you cut off the stem and plant it do the two parts continue growing, the top part normally and the bottom producing small plantlets? Some of them seem to propagate like this, the stem bends over and where it touches the gravel it roots. -- Don`t Worry, Be Happy Sandy -- E-Mail:- Website:- http://www.ftscotland.co.uk IRC:- Sandyb in #rabble uk3.arcnet.vapor.com Port:6667 #Rabble Channel Website:- http://www.ftscotland.co.uk/rabbled ICQ : 41266150 |
